Listen "Understanding Evil: A Cosmic Perspective on Suffering and Free Will"
Episode Synopsis
Join us for a thought-provoking journey as we delve into the profound question of why evil exists if God is both all-powerful and wholly good. Using a personal childhood story and biblical parables, this video explores the concept of free will and the cosmic conflict between good and evil. Learn how an enemy, identified as the devil, sows seeds of evil in a world created good, and why God allows this evil to coexist temporarily with good. Discover insights from both scripture and philosophical perspectives on the problem of evil and the eventual triumph of good.00:00 Childhood Memories at Grandma's House00:16 The Broken Window Incident01:00 The Confession and the Hero01:12 Reflecting on the Past01:31 Questioning God's Role in Evil02:03 The Concept of Free Will03:20 The Cosmic Conflict Framework03:34 The Parable of the Good Seed and Tares04:31 The Enemy's Role in Evil05:56 The Cosmic War and Hope07:50 Choosing Your Kingdom
